Many times the libraries and headers of a project will be separated into
binary and -dev packages, like libssl and libssl-dev. In a case like
this, the -dev package needs to be installed in order for you to compile
something that needs libssl, whereas you just need the libssl package when
installing binaries.
So, to summarize, you probably need pilot-link-dev or something similar.
